Description

A finising method and system for cloth styling

This invention belongs to the technique for finishing cloth, such as a lapel and cuffs of a washed shirt.

The shirt collar and cuffs are pressed by a high-pressure press by sandwiching a thin wick between the inner and outer fabrics. Adhesive wicks are usually reduced by 10-15%. For this reason, wrinkles appear on the surface and the dimensions are also reduced. Since the prior art has prioritized work efficiency, it is thermally pressurized at a high temperature at a time, and it is not corrected even if it is reduced by washing.

The main object of the present invention is to make it possible to simply increase the reduced wick even when finishing with a machine.

In other words, in the orthopedic finishing method of placing the cloth on the lower ironing frame and lowering the upper ironing iron to pressurize the cloth, the stretching treatment is applied to the fabric by applying force to the cloth during or before the pressing process. It provides a method for the orthopedic finishing of fabrics that vaporizes the fabric during or prior to stretching.

In addition, in the orthopedic finishing device of the cloth which presses the cloth between the upper and lower ironing frames, in the vicinity of the lower ironing board on which the fabric is placed, an extension mechanism is inserted in which the end of the cloth is pressed and pulled tight before pressing. Provided is an orthopedic finishing device for a cloth having a steam supply device for releasing steam onto the iron at or near the ironing frame.

Here, pressurization means pressing strongly by applying pressure. Pressurization is the time from when the upper iron frame moves and falls off, making strong contact with the fabric. That is, even if the upper ironing frame is moving, it is not pressurizing but a step before pressurization until it strongly contacts the cloth.

According to the above-described structure, the fabric placed on the lower iron frame is stretched and stretched by the stretching treatment or the action of the stretching mechanism during pressing or in the previous step. At the time of elongation or in the previous stage, the cloth is easily stretched because steam is steamed on the cloth to instantly moisturize the cloth. For this reason, even in the machine finishing process which requires a high work efficiency, the cloth is pressed in an expanded state so that it is finished in good quality without shrinkage or wrinkles.

The cloth refers to the collar or cuffs of the shirt with the adhesive core as described above, as well as other fabrics such as cotton products.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a clean finish by regulating the movement of the restraining device such that the restraining device touches the fabric during the stretching process.

In other words, by installing a regulating device that regulates the movement of the cloth during the stretching process, the cloth can be prevented even if the cloth is shifted due to a jam or timing misalignment at the end of the stretching process. .

In addition, until now, the water temperature had to be strictly controlled when washing because of shrinkage of the cloth. If the water temperature is high, the dirt disappears, but severe shrinkage occurs. In other words, it was difficult to balance shrinkage and clean laundry. However, according to the present invention, when washing, it is important to remove dirt regardless of shrinkage, and it is possible to quickly and simply satisfactorily wash even without skilled staff.

Still another object of the present invention is to neatly finish the shirt collar or cuffs that tend to shrink.

In other words, the shirt collars (upper and lower irons) or the shirts' cuffs (up and down irons), or both, the shirt collar and cuffs that have been troublesome for a long time. Can be easily solved. Workability is also improved if two types of upper and lower iron frames are installed side by side and the collar and cuffs can be finished at the same time.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

The cloth finishing device 1 (hereinafter referred to as a device) lowers the upper iron frame 4 with respect to the lower iron frames 2, 3, and 3 to open the collar 5 and the cuffs 6 (cloth) of the shirt. It is a device to pressurize. In FIG. 1, the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3 and the upper iron frame 4 are shown to face each other.

The device 1 is a cuff of a collar which appears almost triangular from the front and one lower collar 2 for the collar having a gently curved upper surface to simultaneously heat-press the collar 5 and the cuffs 6 simultaneously. Three press surfaces 4a having two lower iron frames 3 and 3 and corresponding to the pressing surfaces 2a and 3a of the lower iron frames 2 and 3 and 3 are provided with an upper iron frame ( 4) was formed.

The upper iron frame 4 incorporates well-known heating means (not shown), and each press surface 4a is equipped with a hot plate (not shown). In addition, the upper iron frame 4 is fixed to the distal end portions of the two left and right pivotal arms 8 and 8, which are supported on the rear side of the work table 7, and as shown in FIG. 2, the upper iron from the inclined rearward (solid line). The frame 4 is rotated to a position (virtual line) opposite the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3. This operation is performed by the rotating air cylinder 9 connected to the lower end of the rotating arm 8. The two pivotal arms and the upper bay are joined by a connecting plate connecting the pivotal arms, and the upper bay is lifted by the driving of the lifting air cylinder placed on the connecting plate.

The lower iron frames 2, 3, 3 are supported at a certain height by the pillars 12 on the upper surface of the worktable 7.

In addition, the steam supply device 13 is provided to supply heat and moisture to the fabric placed on the top.

FIG. 3 shows the internal structure of the collar lower iron 2, and FIG. 4 shows the internal structure of the collar lower iron 3 and 3. As shown in these cross-sectional views, the interior is separated into two upper and lower layers (upper space portion 15 and lower space portion 16) by a separating wall 14. A plurality of small holes 17 are formed on the upper surface, Covers the breathable cover member 18.

The pillar 12 has a hollow cylinder shape and has a built-in air supply pipe 19 connected to an air supply floor (not shown) installed inside the apparatus 1, and the front end portion thereof in the upper space 15. It is fixed to the upper separation wall 12a inside the column 12 so as to communicate. On the injection side of the air supply pipe 19, the diffusion plate 20 is slightly spaced apart so as to diffuse air into the upper space 15. In addition, the upper space 15 is provided with a steam pipe 21 connected to a steam generator (not shown) through a steam supply unit (not shown).

The steam supply part is connected to the steam supply pipe 22 so as to communicate with the lower space part 16 of the upper and lower two floor spaces so that the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3 can be heated to a predetermined temperature by steam. do.

In the vicinity of the lower ironing frame, an extension mechanism 23 for extending the fabric (collar 5, cuffs 6) placed on the lower ironing frames 2, 3, and 3 as shown by a virtual line in FIG. Install.

The extension mechanism 23 is disposed on both sides of each lower iron frame 2, 3, 3, and the lower side where the cloth extends through the narrowing region 24 and the narrowing region 24, which sandwich the ends of the cloth, It consists of the drive mechanism 25 which moves to a direction.

The narrow strip 24 has a storage piece 26 which is in the shape of a square plate, and a pressing piece 27 that meshes with the storage piece 26. The storage piece 26 is fixed to the front end of the pivot member 28 pivotally coupled to the side of the pillar 12 to rotate up and down. The pivot member 28 is shaped to follow the shape of the lower side of the upper iron frame 4 when rotated upwards, and the receiving piece 26 has a little gap on the upper surface of the lower iron frame 2, 3, 3 side. The receiving piece 26 is fixed at an acute angle with respect to the pivot member 28 so as to be positioned. A support piece 29 is formed below the storage piece 26 at the distal end of the rotating member 28 so that the support piece 29 is placed in the support piece 29 and the base end of the pressing piece 27 is formed. The pressing member 31 which has been addressed from the base is rotated to be rotatable. The pressing member 31 is rotated by the fitting air cylinder 32 connected to the rear end of the pressing member 31. The support part of this fitting air cylinder 32 is axially supported by the lower surface of the rotation member 28.

In addition, the driving structure 25 which rotates the pivot member 28 up and down is a pulled air cylinder 33 whose tip is supported on the bottom surface of the pivot member 28 and the support part is supported on the lower end of the pillar 12. It is composed. The pincer 24 when rotating by the pulling air cylinder 33 and descending is set so that it may not contact with the upper iron frame 4 below the lower position of the lower upper iron frame 4 which dropped. It is.

The method to formally finish the collar 5 and the cuffs 6 of the shirt with the apparatus 1 configured as described above is as follows.

First, the pinching strip 24 is positioned on the upper surface of the left and right sides of each lower iron frame 2, 3, 3 in a state in which the pressing piece 27 of the pinching strip 24 is separated from the storage piece 26. And spread the cloth on each lower iron frame (2, 3, 3) and tilts the pressing piece (27) of the narrow strip 24 to fit both ends of the cloth.

Subsequently, the upper iron frame 4 is opposed to the lower iron frames 2, 3 and 3, and the steam supply device 13 is driven. By the operation of the steam supply device 13, steam is injected from the lower ironing frames 2, 3 and 3 and is shot onto the cloth.

The cloth is fixed by the narrow strip 24 so that it can remain in an unfolded state at first. The temperature of the steam is preferably about 150 degrees or more and the injection time is about 1 to 5 seconds. The cloth contains steam and is heated to a tendency to stretch.

While injecting steam or leaving it for a while, the drive mechanism 25 is driven to move the narrow strip 24 in the separating direction so that the cloth is stretched (see FIG. 6).

Specifically, for example, it is good to drive the drive mechanism 25 while simultaneously injecting steam for 5 seconds. After driving the driving mechanism 25 for a predetermined time, the air cylinder 32 for fitting the narrowing region 24 is driven to lay the cloth. Then, the narrow strip 24 is retracted downward of the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3 by the operation of the drive mechanism 25.

At this time, by driving the elevating air cylinder 11, the heated upper iron 4 is lowered, and the lower irons 2, 3 and 3 are strongly pressed to finish pressing the cloth. (See Fig. 7) Then return each part to its original state.

8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13 show another example device 1. This apparatus 1 is provided with a regulating device so as to regulate the movement of the fabric immediately before the end of the stretching treatment during the stretching treatment to increase the cloth as described above so as to finish neatly. This regulating device is installed close to the upper ironing frame 4 or the lower ironing frame 2,3,3.

In the apparatus 1 shown in FIG. 8, the sheet-like member 34 is attached to the lower surface of the upper iron frame 4 in the form of blocking the pressing surface 4a. Other configurations including the lower ironing frames 2, 3, and 3 are as described above, and the steam ironing device 13 is built into the lower ironing frames 2, 3, and 3.

The sheet member 34 is formed in a length corresponding to the length of the front and rear direction of the upper iron frame 4 to press the cloth when the movement of the cloth placed on the lower iron frames 2, 3 and 3 is regulated and pressed. It is attached across the lower end of the pressing surface 4a.

This restriction is carried out when the sheet-like body 34 is in a flat state as shown in Fig. 8, and when pressed, the sheet-like body 34 is deformed and changes arcuately along the press surface 4a. In order to do this, a long gap 34a is formed in the left and right side surfaces of the sheet-like body 34, and the sheet-like body 34 passes through the retaining protrusions 35a and the large diameter of the head 34. To keep it sliding.

The sheet-like body 34 is formed of a thin metal plate having flexibility such as stainless steel, or a flexible sheet-like material having heat resistance by coating ethylene tetrafluoride, and a biasing member made of coil springs to pull the left and right ends. Using 36, a force is applied in the direction in which the sheet-like body 34 is spread out widely.

The method of forming the cloth by the device 1 configured as described above is the same as already described.

That is, by inserting both ends of the cloth to drive the steam supply device 13 to inject steam from the lower iron frame (2, 3, 3) is shot on the cloth. While spraying or leaving a little, the drive mechanism 25 is driven to move the narrow strip 24 in the separation direction to increase the cloth. And while driving the drive mechanism 25, the lower upper iron frame 4 heated by driving the lifting air cylinder 11 for a suitable time before taking out a cloth. When the upper iron frame 4 descends, the sheet-like body 34 mounted on the lower surface of the upper iron frame 4 contacts the stretched fabric as shown in FIG. In this state, when the pincer strip 24 of the extension mechanism 23 pulls the cloth, the sheet-like body even when the pressing piece 27 or the storage piece 26 pulls the end of the cloth or shifts the timing from side to side, It is regulated by the pressing force of 34 to prevent the fabric from shifting from the position above the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3.

The narrow strip 24 taken out of the cloth retreats to the lower side of the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3 by the operation of the drive mechanism 25 (the air cylinder 33 for the pull).

After this, when the upper iron frame 4 is continuously lowered, the sheet-like body 34 is further deformed to form a shape along the pressing surface 4a of the upper iron frame 4, and the fabric is strongly pressed to finish pressing. After pressing for a certain time, the parts are returned to their original form. When the upper iron frame 4 is raised, the sheet-like body 34 is pulled taut by the action of the biasing member 36 to eliminate deformation and return to the unfolded state.

As such, at the end of the stretching process of the cloth by the stretching mechanism 23, the cloth is pressurized while being regulated by the sheet-like member 34 so that the cloth is not shifted from the top of the lower iron frames 2, 3 and 3, and thus does not shrink. It is finished neatly.

Moreover, the effect is obvious because this regulation is carried out naturally before pressurization and smoothly proceeds to pressurization treatment.

The apparatus 1 of FIG. 10 shows an example in which the shape memory alloy is used as the sheet-like member 34 which regulates the movement of the cloth. In other words, the sheet-like member 34 has a flat shape when regulating the movement of the cloth, and when pressurized, the sheet member 34 is active in accordance with the temperature in a form necessary for pressurization, that is, a form corresponding to the upper surface of the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3 Transform.

That is, the upper iron frame 4 having the sheet-like member 34 is provided in parallel with the lower iron frames 2, 3, and 3, and these are supported in a rectangular parallelepiped support 37 having a lower surface. It is. The support body 37 moves up and down by the lifting air cylinder 11.

The upper collar 4 for lapels and the upper collars 4 and 4 for cuffs are centered around the pivot shaft 38 and the pivot shaft 38 which traverse in the front and rear direction at a predetermined position in the support body 37. It consists of two support frames 39 and 39 which rotate relative to a predetermined angle in the vertical direction, and a sheet-like member 34 fixed to the lower ends of the support frames 39 and 39. The lower surface 39a which crosses the axial portion upward from the lower surfaces of the support frames 39 and 39 is formed in a curved shape corresponding to the upper surfaces of the lower iron frames 2, 3 and 3 so that the sheet member 34 is It is configured to support the sheet-like member 34 when deformed. And the steam injection port 40 for heating the sheet-like member 34 is provided in the position corresponding to each upper iron frame 4 of the upper surface of the support body 37 as shown in FIG. The sheet member 34 is set to cause deformation at the set temperature required for pressurization and to recover when the vapor is cooled without being shot.

Since the lower irons 2, 3, 3, and the extension mechanism 23, etc., other than the upper iron frame 4 have the same shape as the first embodiment, detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The device 1 thus constructed is placed on the lower ironing frames 2, 3 and 3 and set in the stretching treatment 23, and then the steaming mechanism 23 is sprayed from the lower ironing frames 2, 3 and 3 while injecting steam. ). At the same time or after a certain time, the support 37 is lowered. As the support body 37 descends, the sheet-like member 34 of each upper iron frame 4 continues to stretch and touch the fabric to press the fabric. The sheet-like member 34 abuts on the cloth and regulates the extra movement of the cloth even when the cloth is extended by the driving of the elongating mechanism 23 in this state and the elongating mechanism 23 is displaced from the cloth. At this time, steam is injected from the steam injection port 40 to the upper iron frame 4 to deform the sheet-like member 34 of the upper iron frame 4, and at the same time the support body 37 (upper iron frame 4) The cloth is pressurized by the descent (see Fig. 11). After steam spraying and pressurizing for a predetermined time, each part is returned to its original state.

FIG. 12 shows a regulating device in the vicinity of the lower ironing frames 2, 3, 3 of the device 1. Except for this regulating device, the structure is the same as in the first embodiment.

As the restricting device, the sheet-like member 34 is rotatably provided to cover the lower ironing frames 2, 3, 3 on the back side of the lower ironing frames 2, 3, 3. Specifically, for example, the sheet-like member 34 is formed using a thin metal plate with plasticity, formed in an arcuate shape and dimensions appropriately corresponding to the upper surfaces of the lower ironing frames 2, 3, and 3, and the lower ends of the rear sides are formed. As shown in FIG. 1, it is supported by the support part 41. As shown in FIG. The support section 41 connects the same kind of rear end to the left and right, and the connection section 42 is held at a fixed position on the rear side of the lower iron frames 2, 3 and 3. And the bearing part 43 is provided in the lower surface of the lower ironing frames 2, 3, 3 rather than the connection part 42 of the support part 41, and the ring 44 is connected. A long hole 44a is formed at the ends of the ring 44 and the bearing 43, and the other end of the ring 44 is connected to the air cylinder 45.

That is, when the air cylinder 45 is driven to push up the ring 44, the bearing portion 43 is positioned at the lower end of the long hole 44a of the ring 44 to erect the sheet-like member 34 vertically.

In addition, when the ring 44 is lowered, the ring 44 pulls the shaft 43 to knock down the sheet member 34 so as to cover the upper surfaces of the lower iron frames 2, 3, and 3 as shown in the imaginary line. . At this time, the axis of the bearing portion 43 is set to be located about the middle of the long hole 44a of the ring 44, and the sheet-like member 34 is lowered by the lowering of the upper ironing frame 4, 2,3. It is a structure that allows the sheet-like member 34 to move downward when pressed against. In the apparatus 1 configured as described above, the sheet-like member 34 is placed in an upright position as indicated by a solid line in FIG. 12, and the fabric is placed on the lower ironing frames 2, 3, 3 in this state and set in the extension mechanism 23. do. The sheet member 34 is then knocked down as shown in FIG. 16 to cover the lower ironing frames 2, 3, 3 or the top surface of the fabric. Next, steam is injected from the lower ironing frames 2, 3 and 3, and the expansion mechanism 23 is driven. The steam injected from the lower ironing frames 2, 3, and 3 can not sufficiently run upward because of the sheet-like member 34, and can sufficiently heat the cloth and supply moisture. The upper ironing frame 4 heated by the steam injection and driving of the elongation mechanism 23 for a predetermined time is lowered. When the elongation mechanism 23 is displaced from the cloth, the sheet-like member 34 prevents the cloth from being out of position while gently covering it with its own weight, and the cloth is pressed by the drop of the upper iron frame 4 in this state. After pressing for a certain time, each part is returned to the beginning.

In this way, the cloth can be increased in the previous step of finishing pressurization, so that the fabric shrunk to the initial dimension can be restored to the initial dimension and pressurized to the state. For this reason, a clean finish can be performed without reducing the collar 5 or the cuffs 6 as in the prior art. In other words, it is pressurized in the stretched state even by the machine finish which requires high work efficiency, and there is no wrinkle and finish like a new product.

In addition, since the stretching treatment for turning the size of the cloth for the first time mechanically with the stretching mechanism 23, the work is simple and the stretching treatment is uniform, so that a well finished product can be obtained.

In addition, because the steam is injected into the fabric, it can be made high temperature in a short time, so it is easy to stretch and work efficiency is good. Steam can also cause the fabric to retain moisture. For this reason, workability is good because the fabrics that have started to dry after washing with water are fixed as they are.

Since the steam supply device 13 for supplying steam is built into the lower ironing frames 2 and 3, steam can be evenly shot onto the fabric. In addition, since there is no need to install a device for supplying steam separately, it is easy to work and can be arranged around the lower iron frame (2, 3, 3) to help ensure the safety of the work.

In addition, since the extension mechanism 23 is configured to effectively use the lower space of the lower iron frames 2, 3, 3, by bearing the supporting portion of the pivot member 28 on the side of the pillar 12, the lower iron frame 2 The space between the parts 3 and 3 is provided to make the device 1 compact overall, which improves the appearance.

Until now, we had to worry about shrinkage of cloth, so we had to strictly control the water temperature when washing. At high temperatures, the dirt disappears, but is drastically reduced. In other words, it was difficult to balance shrinkage and decontamination. However, this method prevents shrinkage by orthopedic finishing, so you can focus on removing dirt rather than shrinking when washing.

In addition, the upper and lower ironing frames for either the collar or cuffs may be provided as a device for the collar or cuffs. It is also possible to use a fabric finishing device other than the collar or cuffs of a shirt to form a dressing device for other fabrics.
